Discord hack update (not out of the woods yet)
2 months ago
Ok, seems I've got Discord back thanks to MFA on my phone. Seems like Discord limited my activities until the 13th, which I suppose is fair considering what's happened.
I can still see the aftermath of my account, seems like a few people were blocked which I'll need to unblock and re-add... Also some people I haven't spoken to for a long time were messaged and were renamed to "1", I presume for the hacker to keep track which suckers he targeted.
I'm praying nobody clicked on any links for his supposed "game" which is an EXE file that takes all your account names and passwords, in which he'll attempt to ransom them from you for likely NFTs/Crypto or he'll sell the info to the dark web and hijack your Discord account to target more suckers from their friend list... Even Twitter where any attempts to warn others would be scrubbed and he will try to lock you out of it (I got it back not long after).
I want to be extra sure I'm 100% in the clear, I hear it might be best to either reinstall my OS and/or format my hard drive just in case there's any hidden malware, plus change all my passwords to every account (that I still care for).

FA+

It's quite effective and deadly accurate.
They're that good.
I can't help but worry they'll somehow hack right back in, despite me going out of my way to make a brand-new email and password for my account, plus 2FA.
I don't know what's worse, AI commission scammers, NightmareCombat, or hackers.
